Not the first one to make this mistake.------0322907 at about $40 each for 6 of them.----Don't worry about others.-----Why did you replace VRO?----What trouble shooting was done , if any ?
my model number is j150glecg im pretty sure. Refering to my vro problems, well i had rebuilt it one time already. then the oil pumping part quit working. So i just decided to swap it out with one of the doubled up traditional fuel pumps. I can not get this thing to run right to save my life. Idk if its not pumping correctly or what, but i can tell my motor is starving for fuel. ive rebuilt the carbs, Im a machinist by trade so i made the jets i needed. I just pulled one of my factory jets out and built 3 replicas. The jet i pulled out was a 69D. After i made the replicas, i was looking at a parts diagram, and according to every diagram ive looked at, my carbs dont take a 69d. according to my research, a 1998 150hp fast strike should take a 70D or a 71D. Can someone please verify this for me. The jet im talking bout is the one that goes behind the drain plug on the float bowl. Also, Im a little bit confused about the pulse limiter. Im not sure whether im supposed to remove the pulse limiter or attach my vacuum line to it? one last thing, sometimes when my motor dies, you can hear the diaphram make a big wheezing noise as the motor dies. Ive never heard any other outboard make this noise before. i just feel like something is not setup right with this new pump. any ideas?
